“Mork & Mindy,” which, by the following spring in 1979, reached 60 million viewers. Robin Williams was now a household name.


Wow. American Idol, in its Fox incarnation, peaked out at a viewership of thirty million, and that was on a larger population base than 1979. Incredible.

I think that’s because in 1979 there were only 3 channels, and now there are 11 million channels.
